  • 1.  Edward Tulane - I need bunnies!

    Posted 09-24-2019 10:09
    We have selected THE MIRACULOUS JOURNEY OF EDWARD TULANE for our summer 2020 Student Theatre production. While it's still many months in the future, I'm hoping to get a start on options for bunnies that other theatres may have to loan out so I can accurately budget for the year. I appreciate any options you all have to share!

    Sara, this is a tough one! My grandmother has a porcelain rabbit doll from her childhood that I imagine is similar to the one in this play (but it's a female rabbit). I searched Etsy and Ebay to find similar ones, I didn't have any luck finding male rabbits. I did, however, find this on Amazon:

    https://www.amazon.com/MANGELSENS-Craft-PORCELAIN-RABBIT-BROWN/dp/B01GKAIJLK/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=porcelain+rabbit+doll&qid=1569511444&s=gateway&sr=8-1

    You could possibly use those and make your own stuffed body (or use a doll's body?). Maybe antique stores or flea markets would also be a good place to search since it appears that this kind of rabbit isn't very common anymore.
